Vibe Staff Backend Engineer, Integrations at Vibe responsible for building and shipping integrations and driving the architecture of Vibe's public API. The role includes working with external partners and owning integration projects end to end.
Responsibilities
You'll join the Integrations team, the connective tissue of Vibe's platform, reporting to the Engineering Manager. The team owns everything flowing in and out of Vibe: measurement and attribution integrations, audience connections from CRMs and CDPs, and reporting pipelines.
This role exists because we're building a first-class Developer Platform: opening Vibe's full capabilities as a public API so external partners can build on top of us. Criteo is the first partner live on it.
Three reasons to want this:
You'll be one of the most senior engineers on Integrations, setting technical direction for a team that's still small enough for one person's decisions to shape it
You'll own the foundational architecture for a platform external partners are already building against
AI-augmented development is the expectation here, not the experiment
Build and ship integrations
Design and implement production-grade integrations with external platforms: CRMs, CDPs, measurement vendors, data partners
Own integration projects end to end, from scoping through production, with full accountability for outcomes
Work directly with external partners to define, validate, and evolve data contracts
Developer Platform
Drive the architecture of Vibe's public API: account, advertiser, and campaign management endpoints built to scale

Required
Production backend TypeScript experience is required. You've built, shipped, and operated backend services, APIs, or microservices using TypeScript and Node.js, or a similar TypeScript backend runtime.
Backend-leaning work. At least half your recent work is services, APIs, data models, and integrations. Fullstack is fine if the backend side is real.
You build for users. You've shipped features customers or partners actually use. You've worked with product on what to build, pushed back on scope, and changed course when feedback came in.
Ownership you can point to. A project you took from scoping to production and stayed accountable for after launch.
AWS, with real architecture calls. Not just deploying to it.
Preferred
Third-party integrations: ETL, webhooks, REST/GraphQL APIs, or similar
Additional backend languages: Python, C++, Rust, or similar
Developer-facing platforms: Experience designing or contributing to public APIs or developer platforms
Startup experience: Current or past experience at a startup of ~300 people or fewer. Doesn't need to be your most recent role.
At Vibe, we run on three values: Impact, Ambition, and Urgency. We tie every goal to a real business outcome, think 10x rather than settling for good enough, and move daily rather than waiting for perfect conditions.
You'll thrive here if you own outcomes without needing direction, default to action, and hold yourself to results, not effort.
This is a high-performance environment with high-performance rewards: you'll work alongside people who push you, with real ownership over hard problems in a market that's moving fast.
If that sounds like the best version of your career, we want to meet you.
